I don't really like this project, I think that it was really hard to communicate with everyone. The wiki didn't really work for me. I was pretty stressed about the photo story because of the occasional lack of communication. Though, I liked how easy photo story was to use. I liked how it was all planned out and all I had to do was add photos and click next and so on. I think that the communication in my group was okay, I think that it might have gone better. I had heard about other problems with communication and related to mine I think that went pretty well. I think that the biggest problem people had was communication with the people in Louisiana. I heard a lot of complaints about this. I think that next year the project shouldn't be too involved with the wiki. I think that it was just hard to figure out.

During the Wiki project I felt very overwhelmed. We had so much to do in so little time! It was hard to find out what others had done and then build off that later on. It took a while for our group to get on it's feet because we couldn't decided which poem to do. It was hard for me because I kept feeling lost every time something new was thrown at me. I had never worked on a Wiki before so it was confuseing for me. Other than the little complications i think the project went well. The group worked well together and I made some new friends I think.

Do you like books? Well I’m reading a really interesting book about 2 teenagers. They have to do Community Service in a substation for lost and found things. One day a teenager named Vinnie, found a brown leathered journal. He opened it and saw weird events in it, but you’ll have to read it to know what happens later.

I am reading perfect. I like that it is about a girl that is a teenager and she does think that she is perfect and the book is called perfect. I don’t like that in the book she is bulimic, in my opinions I think that you should except the way you are and not try to change. It is one of the beat books I have ever read.

Have you read any exciting books lately? I am reading the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. Right now I’m on the third book. So far I have really enjoyed the series. One thing that I really like about it is that it’s fictional so you don’t have to learn all these facts. You can just enjoy it.

I have just started the 10th book of the Animorphs sires. The thing I like about this book is that it is about these teenagers who can morph. into animals and they fight aliens. The thing I don’t like about these books there is 60 books in the sires. I recomed this book it is the best book I have reed.

Recently, I have been reading a book called Sixteen by Julia Karr. This book is about the life of Nina Oberon, a normally fifteen year old girl in the year 2075. Soon Nina’s life turns upside down when her mom is killed and learns her dad is still alive. I like this book a lot and considering how much I hate books I guess that’s pretty good. I over all like the author and want to read more books by her.

I’m reading a book called "Sweet Treats & Secret Crushes". In the story there is three points of views, that is Kate, Georgia, and Olivia. In the story the character’s live in Brooklyn. So a big blizzard on Valentine’s Day hits them and they get a snow day in school. In the apartments, where they live, they pass out fortune cookies they made. Also the cookies bring a little romance and happiness around. I like this book because I can kind of relate on one of the characters and I just like the story in general.

I have been reading a book lately and it is called “No Time Like Show Time” by: Michael Hoeye. I do really like this book. It is a series of books and im on the 3rd book of 3 books. I like how there is a lot of mystery in it ,because after you read some of it you just keep wondering what is going to happen next and if it will be important or not. I also like how it is a fiction book which makes it more fun since the characters in my book are mice.

I am reading "Winter of Candycanes" right now.I an enjoying everyting about it right now especially scince I'm not that far in it right now.I don't know who yhe author is because I don't have the book with me right now.But I think that this will turn out to be a great book!!!:)

The Hunger Games is my #1 Favorite book series as of yesterday! The Hunger Games book series is written by: Suzanne Collins. The best book in this series is the very first book: The Hunger Games. This book takes place in the possibly not-so distant future. The main character is Katniss Everdeen. In this book there are many problems in the world, and in lonley district 12 there are many food shortages and many deaths by starvation. There is an oppourtunity for fame and for food in amounts beyond imagination, the Hunger Games. After a war long ago when district 13 started a rebellion against the Capitol, the Capitol Nuclear striked District 13, and destroyed all that as left of that district. Now, every year, the Capitol has all 12 remaining districts send tribute to them on the day of the Reeping. The tribute payed from each district is 2 children between the ages of 12 and 18 to enter in a fight to the death in the Hunger Games. The winner of the hunger games will return to their district with more food and riches than you could think of. The odds of that happening: 1 in 24. Not very good odds as Katniss is chosen into the arena.

The book im reading now is DEAD IS NOT AN OPTION. It is a good book to read. It has a lot of different other stories to read just like it. Those books are DEAD IS THE NEW BLACK, DEAD IS A STATE OF MIND, DEAD IS SO LAST YEAR, and DEAD IS JUST A RUMOR. That is my book thank you.

I'm not currently reading anything. The last book I read was Manta's Gift by Timothy Zahn. The story takes place in the distant future when humans are trying to colonize the solar system. In the beginning, the main character, Matt Raimey, gets paralyzed from shoulders to feet in a skiing accident. When someone offered him another chance to move, Matt jumped at it. What was in mind was for him to be placed into the womb of an alien and be born as one of them! Matt agreed, though. He was taken to Jupiter and was placed into a giant “Quanska.” With every second chance comes consequences, though, and Matt, or “Manta” as he’s now called, finds himself faced with a problem he couldn’t dream to figure out. This was a great book and I’d recommend it to everyone, except it has mild language.

The Son of Neptune is a great book it is done by Rick Riodan. For those who do not know who he is. He does the Percy Jackson series. Also the CANE CRONICALS and HEROS of OLYMPUS. I like these books a lot. The characters are Percy, Frank, and Hazel. Rick Riodan is a great author. He has web site. You can explore Camp Half-blood. ([LINK]). Also you can find out facts about the Greek and roman gods and goddesses.

I have been reading a book call the Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart. So far, I really like the book it has suspenseful and funny moments. Another thing I liked was how everything connects so, you really have to listen to get it.

Currently I am reading the book namedMATILDA by Roald Dahl. The thing that I am like most about this book is that the movie is nothing like the book so if you saw the movie first then when you read the book you are all confuised about some of the sceens and where they take place. An example of this is when matilda puts the super glue in her fathers hat. This event in the book takes place in the home of the Wormwoods, but in the movie this takes place in the work place of her father. All in all as far as I have gotten this is a very good book.

I have been reading this book called Racing in the Rain My Life as A Dog by Garth Stein. This book is about a dog that wants to be a human and talk to his owner named Denny. Denny and Enzo, the dog hang out together a lot but soon he finds a kind woman named Eve. Later they get married and have a little girl named Zöe and soon Eve and Enzo become friends but Denny starts racing in itialy and starts to separate from Enzo. It is a very good book to read but you got to read about it to see what happens to him and is familys life.

The last thing I read was probably the story The Black Cat By: Edgar Allan Poe. This story was very weird but really good. Poe adds a lot of detail which makes it even more exciting. Currently I am reading Schooled by: Gordon Korman. I am not far enough into the book to give you a summery yet. I like this book because it is funny and very entertaining.

The last book that I read was Hunter Brown. Hunter Brown is sort of like an action book and they go on an adventure. It's interesting because Hunter finds a sword, only it's just the handle. When he clicks the button, which is 3 interlocking V's, the blade pops out but it's invisible. Another interesting thing is he teleports to different dimensions where he defeats bad guys. One of the bad guys wasn't really a guy. It was a very very large dog-like creature that had webbed feet. Another one was an ogre that carried around a club. He captured Hunter and his friends but they escaped. Hunter's friend got a sprained ankle and Hunter had to carry him to saftey so the ogre wouldn't get him. I really enjoyed this book and I would recommend it to anyone who likes action/adventure books.

I have recently read a great book. I am reading a good book now too. It's called The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens by Sean Covey. I know all my friends out there thinking oh my goodness, she is reading a book . What ever to you guys. It is really good. It is abut how us as teens are choosing to do the most crazy things ever. For instance, putting our life's only on our boyfriends/girlfriends and only thinking and spending time on them. Or pleasing others and not yourself. Life is not all fun and games remember. These kind of books are like really good to me. So if you want to buy me a book get one that is advise for me. I love these books.

Right now I am Reading The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins. I like this book because it is very thrilling, but it is also very sad that there is quite a bit of death. It keeps you hanging on waiting to find out what happens next even though you realy want to put it down. I think that this book is great but I don't recomend it because you can't beleive sometimes that these things are actually happening and it really annoys you. At the end its not the best because there is a terrible death. Though still it had me waiting for more.

Well, you know me! Always reading a book! Of course, when I'm not listening to DOL or such other thing in Language Arts, I'm reading or drawing! Most likely reading, however. Right now, I'm reading three series; Maximum Ride, the third time I'm reading through the series, Warriors, the seventeenth time I'm reading through the series(My record on a book read most times by me is Book 6 of the first series- I've read it over 300 times in 3 years!), and the manga version of Warriors. I don't know why I re-read things... Maybe it's instinct?

By the way, anyone else notice Mr. Howard's name counts as a typo when you type it?

As of now, I am reading HALO: The Flood. Right now I am at a part where the marines are invading a Covenent attack ship. I like this book because it has a lot of action in it. I tend to enjoy books with action or adventure in them. That is why I am reading this book. I would rate this book ten out of ten.

I recently read a book called The Invention of Hugo Cabret. I am not currently reading a book so i will talk about this one. T his is one of my all time favorite books. I could read it over and over. I enjoy it becuase it has a lot of mystery and adventure. Those are probably my two favorite genres. This book is so great. If you ever get the chance, you should try reading it.

I recently finished a book called "Playing with Fire" by Theo Fleury. It is an autobiography about Theo Fleury, a former NHL player, and his struggles in life. It was really interesting to see into the life of an NHL player. Some of the things he said were a little messed up, but other than that, it was a great book! I wouldn’t really recommend it though cause, like I said, it was sort of messed up.

The book I am reading now is Tree Girl. This book is very sad it actually made me cry. I really recommend this book, just so you know it has some disturbing parts in the book. The book is about a young girl who has to live between a war, so if you like emotional books or war books I recommend it.

The latest book I read is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Its about a girl named Kattnis who must fight in a competition against 23 other people for her life. The competition is called The Hunger Games and is for the entertainment of the country. It sounds cruel and saddening but has a lot of funny parts to it. That is why it is one of my favorite books. It sounds like it will just have sadness and killing in it, but it has a lot of comedy to it. It is a book that shocks you a lot.

No I haven’t read any good books lately. Right now I’m reading a book trilogy called Ice Wind Dale Trilogy written by R.A.Salvatore. I think the best part of it is where I’m at right now where there’s this battle seen going on.

Currently, I am reading Clique: Friends for Never by Lisi Harrison. I don’t like this book very much. This isn’t a very good book in my opinion because I find it boring and confusing. I don’t like that there is a lot going on at once. I also don’t like that all the stuff that’s happening isn’t very exciting. The main characters are Massie and Claire. They aren’t very exciting. In my opinion, this book is boring.

I have read a good book lately. Right now I am reading Brisingr. I am enjoying that my book has no swearing. I also really enjoy fantasy stuff. The book was written by Christopher Paolini. In Brisingr the main characters are Eragon and his dragon, Saphira. Their troubles are very extreme for external problems. But his internal problems are commen.

The book I am reading now is called Best Friends for Never. I like this book because some of the characters and I have some characteristics in common to each other. The book is also very entertaining. A reason I don't like the book is because some of the character's actions in it influence me in a bad way. Best Friends for Never is by Lisi Harrison.

I usually like to read books, but lately I have not “clicked” with any books. The last book I read that I loved was a booked called ‘Watchers’. This book is about a boy who is trying to fit in after his dad goes missing. One day when he was coming home from school in the subway and he was already having a bad day… anyway they passed an old train stop station and everything froze! Then… well you will just have to read it yourself! Hahahahahaha

My book that I’m about half way though the The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan. This is the 5th book of The Lightning Thief series and everything is unfolding and a lot of action! Percy Jackson the main character just herd the full prophecy of his life and has to save the Gods!! I love the series because you cant put down the book and yes I would recomend it to people who likes action!

The good book I have been reading is "Moonlight on the Magic Flute", by Mary Pope Osborne. I am enjoying the adventure of Jack and Annie, because they meet Mozart and make beautiful music. The thing that I didn't really enjoy was that the book really wasn't serious and some parts just didn't make much sense.

The book I am reading right now is amazing. I am reading a book about kids that think name calling is not good and they are trying to stop it. The kids put signs every where and are throwing party's called the no name club. This book is really weird but fun. I am also not a big fan of reading but I will do it if I have to. Tell me about the books you like!

I just finished reading The Son of Neptune. It is by Rick Riordan. Rick Riordan is the author of many other of my favorite series such as “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” and “The Kane Chronicles”. The Son of Neptune wassuperb was many reasons. First, it combined mystery, fiction, and fact perfectly. This combination made the book exciting and intriguing. Second, there was an immense amount of action. The characters fought a medley of Greek and Roman monsters. Finally, it was the continuation of my favorite series, “Percy Jackson and the Olympians”. “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” made me think that everything was ok but, The Lost Hero and The Son of Neptune provoked this thought. Overall, this book was a pleasure to read.

Right now I am reading the Harry Potter series. I am on the fourth one, The Goblet of Fire. I like that there is not much going on right now, but there is a mystery surrounding who is picking the contestants for the tournament. All in all it is really good.

A book I have currently read is "Who Wore It Best ?" and the person I thought who wore it best was Babe Ruth because he hit 714 home runs and because he hit 2,217.I don’t like the Yankees but he was a legend he won 94 games but he also lost 46 but that’s still pretty good.

The book that I'm currently reading is Holes by Louis Sachar. I'm reading this book a second time because of how interesting it is to me. A boy is convicted for steeling a pair of shoes that were famous and to be auctioned off. The money raised was to be brought to a homeless shelter. The main character's name is Stanley Yelnats, from a poor family. After committing the crime he gets the choice to either go to jail, or dig holes at a place called Camp Green Lake. He chooses to go to the camp. I like this book because all of the characters at the camp have silly nicknames and act really cocky, but funny. So overall, this is my favorite book.

There are a lot of good books every where you go. I have read a couple great books in the past few weeks. Right now I am reading Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. I like it because it has the whole good guy, bad guy part but mainly because it is also about a family that is struggling with other problems of their own trying to get through all of it.

The book I am reading right now is Swindle by: Gordon Korman. It is about these kids who find a million dollar baseball card with a picture of Babe Ruth on it. A guy steals the card and they have to break into his house to retrieve the card. It is a really good book. I like it a lot and would recommend it to anyone who likes books about kids breaking into houses.

I have just finished reading a book called Sixth Grade Secrets by Louis Sachar. The main character is a girl named Laura Sibbie who finds a hat at a garage sale that says "Pig City" on it, and that is where it all began. She started a secret club named after it, and to make sure none of the members tell about it, she makes them give her what she calls "insurance", an embarrassing thing she will show to the whole school if anyone tells. Gabriel, a boy who has always had a crush on her and wishes she would notice him, overhears Laura talking to her friends about the club and wants to join. Then something goes wrong, and Gabriel starts a different club, Monkey Town. Eventually, there is a happy ending in which Laura and Gabriel become together and her friends, who ditched her before, accept her back. I won't give you all the details because you have to read it to find out and I wouldn't want to spoil it for you. What I disliked about it was Sheila and Howard, two people that just hate Laura and do something very horrible in the story to her that results in out of school suspension. What I liked was, well, everything else! It really is a great story that everyone would enjoy (but probably not boys because it has love). You can probably get it at the LMC so check it out!

I'm reading Artemis Fowl I like it right now. The author is Eric Colfer and I have read only 1 of his Artemis Fowl books so far. I"m enjoying it so far and it kind of goes together with the other one I read.

As you all probably know from last year I read a lot so I will only tell you the books I finished in the past month. I finished The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. The Phantom of the Opera is a wonderful love triangle between a good guy and a bad guy and a beautiful soprano girl. The good guy’s name is Raoul and he is a spoiled rich kid. The bad guy is The Phantom (his real name is Erick.) Last but not least the beautiful girl is Christine Daee. The Phantom loves Christine so much he would kill for her. He has been stalking her since the day she came to live in the opera house and his plan to marry her is going well until her lover Raoul comes to live there as well. While Christine thinks Erick is her Angel of Music she starts to fall in love with her other lover Raoul. The Phantom is very unhappy so he brings her to his not at all lively world beneath the Opera House. She tries to make herself believe that she is in love with The Phantom but really she doesn’t want to live the lonely life he lives so she tries to be with her true lover Raoul. (That is just one of the books I just recently read.) Some of the other books I recently read in the past month were A Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne, Spying in High Heels by Gemma Halliday, and The Call of the Wild by Jack London. I’m recently reading three books: Thirst No. 1 by Christopher Pike, Matched by Ally Condle, and Cryptic Cravings by Ellen Schreiber. Thirst No. 1 is a vampire book. It is about a vampire named Alisa who is five thousand years old and she drinks human blood but doesn’t kill. Her quest leads her to a boy named Ray and he is a human. Alisa ends up falling in love with this boy. There are four books in this series and this book is the first of them, there are also three books in this book I am only on the second book of this book. Matched is a book were the officials who you love, where you work, and when you die. Cassia is the main character of this book and when she decides to finally get her match (the person you end up getting married to) she ends up getting matched to her best friend. But before the screen that shows your match goes black (because her match is in the same town as her) someone else flashed on the screen. Now she needs to make a choice between Xander and Ky and between perfection and passion. And last but not least Cryptic Cravings. This is another vampire book about Alexander and Raven. Alexander is a vampire who lives at the top of the hill in the “haunted” mansion. In the first book of the series Raven a human girl who has dreamed of being a vampire since she was little meets Alexander when she sees him in the first book. This is book number eight in the Vampire Kisses series. All in all I read a lot of good books and I love to read and wish to keep doing so.

Recently, I read abook called What Janie Found by Caroline B. Cooney. I really like the suspense that is added to this book. Now I am deciding what I want to read next. I am in between books. I think I will read a book by John Bytheway. I am not sure if I will like it. Wish me luck!

I'm reading the second book in the Ranger's Apprentice series, TheBurning Bridge.The Rangers Apprentice Series is about the two heros, Halt and Will. Will is a scrawney but resouceful orphan that grew up to become Halt's apprentice. Halt is a ranger which is an elusive and secretive charecter. Thre are a total of fifty rangers, not counting Will, for each of the fifty fiefdoms of the kingdom Arulen. Halt led the offensive against the bad guy, Morgorath, fifteen years ago. Halt had one othr apprentice before Will, Gilan. Gilan is a fiendly person with a dark side he uses on bad guys. Right now Will, Gilan, and will's friend, Horace are on an important mission in the kingdom of Celtia. Celtia Also Is bordering the Mountains Of Rain And Night, where Morgorath is holed up. Morgorath and his army of Wargles (Bear like creatures with long muzzles that stood up right and responded to the mental comand of Morgorath) plan on attacking and ruling ofer everyone.

I am not a book person so I really have not found a book that I have liked recently. However, I am reading a book called "Out of My Mind" by Sharon M. Draper. I like this book because it's about an eleven year old who can't walk, talk, or write. She is a very smart person, but she can't express anything. I think this book is good because it shows me how I can be kinder to the people in special Ed. This book is written from a person in with her disabilities who has to work with her disabilities. So far I am kind of liking this book.... well let's see how I like it at the end!!!

I have been reading a book lately and it is called “No Time Like Show Time” by: Michael Hoeye. I do really like this book. It is a series of books and im on the 3rd book of 3 books. I like how there is a lot of mystery in it ,because after you read some of it you just keep wondering what is going to happen next and if it will be important or not. I also like how it is a fiction book which makes it more fun since the characters in my book are mice.

Yes, I have read a good book lately. I am reading Fallen by Lauren Kate. I am really enjoying the whole entire book at this point. The book wants me to keep on reading it is so good. The books I have read by her so far I have enjoyed. I like this book because it is very interesting. It is about fallen angels and it is kind of a romance novel. I recommend this book to people who are interested maybe in vampire books or fantasy stories. Lauren Kate is a good author read more of her books if you do like Fallen.

Yes I have read a good book I finished it a few days ago. The book I am reading now is Warriors Sunset by Erin Hunter. Erin Hunter is my favorite author. One thing in my book I don’t like is two of the four clans are having trouble with humans and they want more land and they think the other clans are too weak to fight for their territory.

The name of the book I am currently reading is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I like the hunger games a lot because it is about Katniss ending up in The Hunger Games along with 23 other people. The goal of the game is to survive and to assassinate your opponents .It is a really good book and is almost flawless in my opinion. My advice to you if you haven’t already to read it.

The book I am reading is called The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan. So far I like all of the book, but the part I don't like is that the book is going to end! I like that he adds all these other people's ideas into the book and has different chapters about different people.

The great book that I am reading lately is a book called Thirteen Plus One by Lauren Myracle. I like this book because the characters seem so real and so do the settings and the actions. I also like it because it is in a series the names of these books are Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, and, Thirteen Plus One. I love this book and it is awesome.

Right now I'm reading "The Clique," novels by Lisi Harrison. So far, I am on the sixth book out of fourteen. I usually find reading to be boring and unenjoyable but this series is really good. I enjoy reading them because the plot line is scandelous and exciting.

I just finished reading Touching Spirit Bear, one of my favorite books. I had read it acouple times befrore, but it was such a good book I read it again. Another seris I really enjoyed was The Seris of Unfortunate Events. My favorite book of the seris was The Ersatz Elevator. I liked it because It was very mysterious, and you didn't really know what to expect. My favorite book of all time though, has to be Where The Red Fern Grows. I read it acouple years ago for battle of the books, and it has been my favorite book since.

My favorite book that I have read lately is Parvana’s Journey by Deborah Ellis. Parvana’s Journey is book two of The Breadwinner Series. This is my favorite book because of the story line. It is about a young girl named Parvana facing the realistic tragedies and struggles of what a woman in Afghanistan would face. With her father dead and her family moving away for her sisters wedding, she heads towards the town that is being attacked. Along the way she meets kids her age going through the struggles she suffers and they become each others family. During the journey she dresses as a boy because females can’t be without a male escort, and if you don’t have a male escort the Taliban will do a list of things to you. This realistic fiction story is an eye opening experience that changes your point of view when you read it.

The book I’m reading right now is called The Ranger’s Apprentice: Ruins of Gorlan by John Flanagan. I have never read a book from this author, but he seems to be a good author. It’s about a young man named, Will. Once being chosen to be a ranger’s apprentice, he must learn how to be a ranger. Throughout the book, he learns how to be a Ranger by his teacher, Halt. This is a really good book that has a whole new surprise just on the other page. I highly recommend this book, for people that like action and adventure.

I recently read the book Hunger Games by Susan Collins. It was the best book I’ve ever read. I couldn’t put the book down. The main character is Katniss. She was chosen to be in the annual hunger games. The hunger game is a fight to death.The last one standing is the winner.You must have excellent surviving skills and hunting skills. There are also many impediments the game makers make. Some examples are when they through fireballs and wild dogs come to chase you. Right now I’m trying to find the sequel to the Hunger Games. But I don’t have a good book in mind either.

Recently I've been reading Holes a book written by Louis Sachar. in this book a boy named Stanley Yelnats is sent to a juvenile detention facility for a crime he did not commit. He soon comes to realize that he's not digging to "build character" he's digging because the warden is looking for something. If you haven't read this book yet I highly suggest you do.

The book I am reading right now is called The Name of this Book is Secret. It is a great book for non-readers like me. This book contains a secret that we do not know yet. I think the author did a great job leveling to our age to make this book so funny and fun for us kids. The author's name is Pseudonymous Bosch. Even the name is funny and so is the first page you read and the next one it just goes on. I can't put down this book. This is a great book and I recomend it for all ages. You too can find out this horrible secret just check this book out at a local library near you. Get reading!

I am reading a really good book by Erin Hunter. It is book five of the Warriors series. The main character is a cat clan called Thunder Clan but follows one cat, Fireheart. There are five clans: Thunder Clan, Wind Clan, Shadow Clan, River Clan, and Star Clan. Star Clan is the ancestors of the other four clans watching over them. I really like cats and the book is adventurist and I like adventure. Plus, things are constantly changing one bad thing after another. I'm not finished but I'm almost done.

Ah, books. A great passing time and fine entertainment. I am currently reading Artemis Fowl and the Opal Deception. Artemis Fowl is a book series about a 13-year-old genius that makes one of the greatest discoveries of all time: a secret civilization underground. The civilization consists of a highly intelligent race including fairies, centaurs, warlocks, dwarfs, and goblins. These fairies are not your typical three-inch tall woodland pixies either; they pack awesome weaponry, have epic technology, and are currently rivaling with Artemis Fowl, who wishes to exploit them to the world in order to obtain whatever he wants. I like the action and story of this book and there is nothing that I actually dislike. After this series, I am thinking about reading the Percy Jackson novels. I’d like to know more about the series before I read it, so, post some facts! Oh, and make sure you read the Artemis Fowl series as well!

Currently, I’m reading Black-eyed Suzie by Susan Shaw. I’m amazed that I actually like this book, because usually I’m not a big reader. I like the way the author develops the characters in the book. You get a really good sense of who they are and what they are going through emotionally. I enjoy how the author builds suspense, for example when the main character, Suzie, finally admits that her mom abuses her. One thing that I don’t like though is the fact that the author is always switching from what’s happening in the past, to what is happening in the present. Overall, I really enjoy the book I’m reading and I can’t wait to learn what happens at the end.

I have recently read a good book it’s called The Other Sister by S.T. Underdahl. I like the character Josey because she is responsible for her younger siblings, also a big brother (Jake). Later, Josey finds out she has a older sister named Audrey. Josey's parents had to give up Audrey to a family who adopt her when they were about 16 & 17 years old. Right now I just started a new book called A Great And Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray. So far I'm enjoying it so far, but I'm not too far right now.

The book that I am currently reading is called, The Watsons Go to Birmingham by Christopher Paul Curtis. I just recently finished this book. It is about an African American family moving to the town Birmingham because the town that they were in was just to cold! My favorite part would have to be the entire first two chapters. In the first two chapters, you really get to know almost all of the characters. My favorite character would have to be the main character's older brother, Bryon. He is totally obsessed with himself, and if you read this book you can figure out all of the stupid things that he does. I would recommend this book to anyone with a good sense of humor.

I am reading a book called To Kill a Mocking Bird. I love how the author describes every little detail in this book. You are walking around with the main character the whole time. The story is in first person point of view. The main character is a young girl named Jean Louise Finch. She is extremely energetic and thoughtful. The story takes place in a southern town. That helps you find out what it is like to go to school, live in a prejudice society, and have fun from Jean Louise’s perspective. The Finch family has a lot to learn, both the old and the young. What happens to Jean Louise and her family? Read the book to find out!

Right now, I am reading the book Rangers Apprentice: The Sorcerer of the North. I am enjoying it a lot. It is the fifth book out of ten in the series. I like that there is a lot of action in the story. I also like that the story is placed in a world very similar to Earth in medieval times. There isn’t anything I can think of that I don’t like about this book. I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a book to read.

A book that I have read recently is called Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. This book is about a girl named Tally Youngblood. In a few weeks she will turn from an ugly to a pretty. To be a pretty you get a big surgery. Tally is very excited until she meets a friend, who has the same birth date as her, her name was Shay. She met Shay in pretty town, they both snuck in. Shay thought that Tally had guts to jump off a building, with safety, and sneak into pretty town. Shay was different than other uglies though, she did not want to become a pretty. Shay told Tally a story about other friends sneaking off to never become pretties. What happens next? You would have to read the story to find out. I thought that this was a very good book.

The book I am currently reading is Ingri and Edgar Parin d'Aulaire's book of Greek myths by Ingri and Edgar Parin d'Aulaire. It is a book (of course) about Greek mythology. I love this book it’s very descriptive and fun to read. The last book I read before this one was The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. I love Riordan he puts Greek myths into a fun book for all ages to read. What was the last book you red?

I haven’t read much lately, but have just finished a book that can be added to my list of favorites. This book is none other than the notorious Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. The way the book is written makes it candy for the mind of any active reader. The book I’m reading now is also by an amazing author: Isaac Asimov. This book is called Prelude to Foundation and is the first of a whole series of books. I am enjoying this book very much.

Right now, I am reading the Morganville Vampire series. I am on the third book, Midnight Ally. The story is about a girl named Clair Danvers who goes to collage in a town called Morganville. Soon, she discovers that Morganville is actually a town of vampires!

I love how the book has so much detail and how it all seems so real! But what I don’t like is how the book isn’t Twilight!

I've read a book called Eclipse by Stephanie Meyer. She is one of my favorite authors and i loved reading her series. The main characters are Edward and Bella and they are madly in love. The problem is Edward is a vampire and Bella is not and she wants to be one. But their problems always get solved with their love for each other.

I am reading one of the best books ever written for just kids. The title is N.E.R.D.S it stands for national espionage, rescue, and defense society. It’s about this popular kid getting braces and his friends not being his friends until he finds out all the kids he’s bullied turned out to be spy’s and he does not know it till he becomes one himself. Unfortunately for him he does not know the first thing about being a spy so no one on the team really likes him so wish him luck.

The last book I read is The Ranger's Apprentice: Halt’s Peril. I really liked it. It is the ninth book in a ten book series. Like in the title, Halt almost dies. Halt is a legendary ranger. Rangers are a tight knit group of people who have on the dot accuracy with a longbow at 200 yards. They carry double knife scabbards with a throwing knife and a very large knife (they are very skilled with these to). Rangers “use black magic” to disappear with their camo cloaks. I like these books very much.

The book i am reading is gunies book of world records. I like the book because it tells you wierd facts and wierd talents that have set world record. Almost every record that has beeb set or brook is in the guines book of world records. and my grandpa might be in the world record book for longest living man he is 117 years old.

I have read a lot of good books lately, but the most recent is Mocking Jay by Suzanne Collins. I absolutely love this book because it has everything an excellent story needs. Mocking Jay is the third and last book of The Hunger Games series. The main characters names are Katniss, Gale, and Peeta. The great thing about this book is that everything is full of action, so you feel really excited about what will happen next. I love this book you should definitely read it, Suzanne Collins is a wonderful author check out her other books out to.

Actually, I am reading a good book. Even though I hate books. It is a book about horror stories. Some of the stories are actually semi scary. It's called More Horowitz HORROR. The book is by Alex Rider. The thing that actually makes it good is that it’s a mystery book. I personally like scary stories but this is in the middle of scary and mystery. . When it gets back to the library some of should read it.

One of the books that I have read recently was Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes. Although this was a shorter version of the story, it is still a great book. The book is about a man who just loves reading about knight errantry and “becomes” a knight. At his side there is Sancho Panza, his squire that was promised to receive an island to govern after Don Quixote finishes his quest. Don Quixote seeks to see Dulcinea, which is the person that he loves. He also attacks windmills, groups of sheep, and other random objects. At the end, he dies after he was defeated. I like this book because I learned new Spanish words. It was also funny.

The best book I have read so far? That’ a hard one! I would have to say it would be the book Another Faust by Daniel and Dina Nayeri. It’s about these five kids who wanted something really badly that they thought would make life better… and then suddenly went missing. They later learn, after living with their governess Madame Vileroy for 15 years, that they didn’t really need those things. I haven’t finished it yet, so I’m really interested to see how it ends, but I know that there is a lot of conflict and mystery and even suspense. The rating is for 14+ but it’s a really good book and I recommend it to those who love mystery, suspense, conflict and trickery. If any of you have read it, which I doubt any of you have, then please don’t tell me how it ends, although I’m almost done with it since I am listening to it on CD( I know bad me.). I have never heard of these authors, until I found this book, but so far, I like them. If any of you have any book suggestions, please let me know which books you recommend!

I am not reading a book right now. However, the most recent book I have read is Level Up by Gene Yuen Lang. The main character is named Dennis. His destiny is to become a gastroenterologist. Thing is that his dad wants him to be a doctor. Angels also tell him that it is his destiny, but it is not what he wants. The book is funny because, he doesn't want to become a gastroenterologist and instead he wants to play video games for a living. In the book he learns that the angels are broken promises that his father made and that he wants Dennis to become a better man than he was. (His father died.) In the end, Dennis does not become a gastroenterologist, but instead he becomes a different type of doctor. He becomes a colonoscopist because when he plays the video games he is saving people lives, but he realizes the people's lives he saves in the games aren't real.. I would recommend this to people who like funny, realistic fiction and people who like American Born Chinese.

I just finished The Bellmaker by Brian Jacques, the sequel to Mariel of Redwall. The Bellmaker is a book in the Redwall series. I really enjoyed reading this series. The Bellmaker is about a mouse named Joseph the Bellmaker seeking out for his lost daughter, Mariel, and a mouse, Dandin, who are in grave danger. Joseph and four others from Redwall, an abbey, seek out Mariel and Dandin before it's too late. Along the way, they gather allies to defeat Urgan Nagru, a fox that holds Mariel and Dandin hostage. I recomend this book to anybody that likes adventure stories and the Redwall series.

One of the books/series of books I have been getting into lately is the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling. My sisters have read all of the books and both my sisters and I have seen and loved all of the movies, so I thought I would start reading the books. Since I started I like them a lot because of all of the detail in the books that was not in the movies.

My favorite book of all time actually happens to be one I just finished reading. This book is Torrent by Lisa T. Bergren. Torrent is the third book in the River of Time Series. This book is about two girls (Gabi, the main character who is eighteen; and Lia, her younger sister that is fifteen.) Gabi and Lia are not your typical American girls. Although they live in Boulder, Colorado, their parents are archaeologists, so they spend each summer in Italy! But that isn’t the weird thing; these girls travel back in time through a tomb to medieval Italy. In Torrent, Gabi and Lia have managed to take their parents with them on their third trip back. (They went alone on the first, with their mom on the second, and managed to save their dad before he got in a car crash two years before the present.) Lia and Gabi were wandering in the tomb one day, when they saw handprints that matched their own exactly and were only warm for them. When both hands were on the prints, they traveled through time. In medieval Italy, Gabi and Lia have found two great guys, Marcello and Luca who have stolen their hearts. I find this book more entertaining then most because there is constant war and battles between Sienna (the good side) and Firenze (the bad side) over territory, and sometimes the She-wolves of Sienna, which are Gabi and Lia. Remember, women’s rights are a long way away. There are definitely too many reasons to name why I love this book.

I'm reading a book called deeper. It's the second book in the Tunnels series. I like the problems in the book but one thing I really don't like is how much suspense there is. You will first get hooked in a part of a story and then it will go to another main character and then you'll get hooked there, and then it'll skip to another main character and again and again but then it will back to the first main character and start the cycle all over again. Ugh.

The book I’m reading (actually re-reading) is very good. The title is Fablehaven (all one word) and the author is Brandon Mull. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasies and mystical creatures. Some other good books that I’ve read are: The Inheritance cycle series by Christopher Paolini, The Pendragon series by D.J. Mac Hale, and the Kane series by Rick Riordan.

The book I have been reading lately is Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet”. I just love “Romeo and Juliet”. I think it is so amazing. The things I am enjoying about “Romeo and Juliet” are that I can just read it in modern English right next to what Shakespeare wrote. I think that is the beauty of being able to translate what Shakespeare wrote from a long time ago to what we are used to hearing now. The thing I don’t like about “Romeo and Juliet” is that sometimes it doesn’t even make sense of what they are saying, but I just keep reading on and then I go back to the modern English translation to understand what is being said. I think anybody who likes to anything about Shakespeare or something Shakespeare wrote then you should read this book. I also found at the public library when I was trying to do some research on “Hamlet” instead I found “Romeo and Juliet”. Read this book and understand “Romeo and Juliet” more than you ever thought you would.

There are several books that Raphael wants me to read, and there are several that I want him to read. We decided that I would read Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck, and he would read Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury. I recently finished his book, and he's working on mine. Of Mice and Men is a short book about two men traveling to find work during a difficult economical time for the U.S. It is a story of friendship, loyalty, and courage. I highly recommend it.

Hey ever read Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire? J.K Rowling is the author. This the like 6th time I’ve read it. I love Mad-eye Moody. Poor dude. I think it could be longer. Harry Potter is the best character there is. My favorite part of the book is when he forces Fred and George to take the one thousand gallons he won. I also just finished book 7. I hate the part were Fred dies. WHY?!!! What did Fred do wrong. Sirius is an amazing character. He is my favorite animal….A DOG! Poor puppy got killed in book 5. Dobby was also a great character.

I enjoy reading many books. However, the most recent book I have read was The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan. This book was released on Tuesday October fourth. It is a sequel book to The Lost Hero. Both of these books are about either Greek or Roman mythology. I have gotten this book because Greek mythology is an interesting topic, in my opinion. If you like Greek or Roman mythology, I suggest you read these books.
